What This Book Actually Contains
How to Meditate with Crystals by Jolie DeMarco is a practice-focused guide built around 33 distinct crystal meditations. For each meditation, DeMarco identifies the specific crystals best suited to the intention, provides guidance on setting that intention, instructions for opening the meditation, and a closing practice of gratitude. The structure is practical and repeatable rather than theoretical, making it a working manual rather than a reference encyclopedia. DeMarco also covers each featured crystal’s energy, origin, and influence on the chakras, physical body, emotions, and spiritual dimensions.
The book distinguishes itself from general crystal reference books by keeping meditation as the organizing principle throughout. Rather than describing crystals alphabetically with properties listed, every crystal discussion in this book is framed by how it behaves during a specific meditative practice. That shift in perspective changes how the material is useful. Someone who already knows their crystals will still find new ways to work with them here because the information is organized around the experience of using them in seated practice rather than catalog-style lookup.

Scope and Who It Is For
The range of meditations in this book spans chakra and color meditations, guided visualizations for manifesting love, practices for connecting with spirit guides or those who have passed, body movement meditations, and more. DeMarco specifically addresses both complete beginners and those with established practices, framing the content as accessible regardless of where someone is in their meditation journey. The 216 pages accommodate substantial depth across the 33 practices without reading like a textbook, and the paperback format is practical for keeping on the altar shelf alongside the crystals you will use with it.
How to Use This Crystal Meditation Book
How to get the most out of Jolie DeMarco’s crystal meditation guide.
- Read the Crystal Profile Before Each Session
Before beginning a meditation, read DeMarco’s description of the featured crystal, including its origin and chakra associations. This primes your awareness and makes the seated practice more intentional rather than mechanical.
- Gather the Recommended Crystals
Each of the 33 meditations specifies which crystals to use. Assemble these before sitting. If you do not have the exact stones, DeMarco provides enough context about the crystal’s qualities that you can make an informed substitution.
- Follow the Full Opening, Practice, and Closing
Each meditation has three distinct phases: opening, active practice, and gratitude closing. Working all three creates a complete container rather than treating the practice as a simple breathing exercise with a stone in hand.
The Tarot Fellow Standard
I stock this book because it bridges two things my customers care about, crystals and meditation, in a format that is actually usable rather than decorative. Many crystal books tell you what a stone means but not how to work with it in a sustained practice. DeMarco does the reverse: the practice comes first, and the crystal knowledge serves that practice. That is a different and more useful pedagogical approach for anyone who wants to sit with their stones rather than just collect or display them.
